I have a teeny tiny budget to buy a new TV and so am tempted by the Tesco own brand Technika TV/DVD combo. Does anyone have one? Are they dreadful?

We bought one a few weeks back and ended up taking it back as the digital channels didn't work (after various attempts by dh to tune and move aerials etc).

You're better off getting a smaller one from John Lewis. I saw one for about £300 yesterday online which looked good.

I had some Tesco own brand keyboards electrics and they were rubbish. Rubbish. Cheap. Horrible.

John Lewis are lovely

We got a John Lewis one recently which came with a 5 year guarantee. Was well chuffed as they are ace at exchanging stuff.

Hmm - I feared as much. And you're right about John Lewis, they are always fab. OK, will head for West Quay (mmmmmmmmm Ikea next door mmmmmmmmmmm)

Agree with the others. We've had TVs and DVD players from Tesco and it's not worth it. Pay more at John Lewis for a better brand. And a longer guarantee.

BE CAREFUL WITH TESCO TVS!
